Residential Property Services

From time to time our clients have the requirement for complex property transaction work from a legal perspective. We are pleased to provide details of a service offered by Bristol law firm Burges Salmon. Many of our clients will at some stage wish to purchase a property with a purchase price in excess of £1m and the Burges Salmon service is tailored to such a transaction.

The residential property team at Burges Salmon LLP is known nationally and internationally for its expertise and top level experience in high net worth UK residential property transactions.

The firm's aim and philosophy is to provide "city-style" quality and experience, with a bespoke service tailored to an individual client's needs whilst retaining a competitive advantage on costs over London firms. As well as providing straightforward, professional and practical advice on all aspects of residential property, Burges Salmon pride themselves on providing a swift, efficient and responsive service. The lawyers within the team will guide buyers throughout the whole transaction process, whether the property in question is a family home, a rental investment or a development venture, and they have many years' experience in identifying and resolving the various issues that may be faced by both UK and overseas clients in respect of such transactions. The team works closely with other departments across the firm to provide advice on matters such as tax planning, listed building and planning issues and property litigation in order to provide a complete solution.
